Magellan RoadMate 5255T-LM

This 5" touch screen navigator comes with high end features such as Free Lifetime Map Updates & Free Lifetime Traffic Alerts. You also get compatibility with the optional Magellan Wireless Back-up Camera for added safety backing out of your driveway and ease of parallel parking.

Some of the new features make navigation easier. With the Landmark Guidance you receive directions using landmarks as your guide versus street names, making it a more intuitive way to navigate. You'll hear instructions like "In 200 feet, turn left at the Shell Gas Station". Then the upgraded Junction View generates realistic images of freeway signs and arrows guide you to the correct lane to make driving easier, safer and less stressful.

Traffic Camera Alerts by PhantomALERT are included at no extra charge for one year. Receive audible and visual warnings of red light and speed cameras along your route. This is verified crowd source data that you refresh on your unit by the free Content Manager from Magellan. You can even become one of the many reporters on the street by submitting your own discoveries or rating the reliability of the alerts you are shown. Premium content is available for an extra cost which includes blackspots (high accident areas), school zones, and dangerous intersections.

Best Parking is another great feature; it makes parking in the city a much easier affair. Best Parking provides parking garage locations with both their hours of operation and the entrance location. Choose the garage that is open as well as close to your destination. Once you have selected a garage you are guided directly to the entrance. No more searching for how to get in!

The integrated AAA Tourbook gives you detailed information on hotels, restaurants and attractions so that you have the information you need to make your destination decisions. And what happens if you break down out on the road? On the special "Where am I?" screen you'll not only have your present location given in terms that a tow truck driver can understand, but you'll also have the AAA phone number listed and a place for you to enter in your AAA membership number. No more digging through your wallet or glove compartment!

The RoadMate navigation experience is both intuitive and robust. The OneTouch Favorites Menu allows you quick access to your favorite places or even your favorite searches. Enter addresses quickly and accurately with Magellan's Quickspell which guides to a correct spelling. SayWhere technology speaks the street names throughout the preloaded maps of the 50 United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.
